Petra
Breed: Grade Pony
Sex
: Mare
DOB: 1981
Height: 13.3 hh
Color: Bay with some roaning
Markings: Star
Location
: Giddings, TX
 

 

 

Temperament: Very calm and laid back, she's very easy to handle, bombproof.


Physical problems / health issues: Pet has some pretty significant arthritis especially in a front knee, some days she's quite stiff and may need bute.

Interaction with horses: Pet is a follower, she likes to bond with one special horse, she's very submissive and cannot be pastured with horses that will run her around. 

Interaction with people:

History: Donated when her owner could no longer care for her. She was previously a child's pony.

Training / abilities: Bomb proof ground manners.  Can no longer be ridden due to arthritis.

Special needs: Senior feeding needs.

Other comments:  Pet is a truly loveable, kind, gentle soul!  She will fall asleep being brushed and just loves attention.  With other horses, once she bonds with them in a pasture, she will follow them anyplace.   She does not like to be by herself at all.
